What is Fascism and Why does it Emerge?

The purpose of this essay is to explain what fascism is and why it emerges.

Fascism is a political ideology that consists of an all powering totalitarian government, which has total control of the people, the nation and the economy. The fascist economic system creates an upper class  for the owning/ruling class and leaves the working class in a lower state who in turn produce for the elite. To justify themselves as beneficial to the oppressed lower class, the fascist installs an extreme sense of Nationalisms and organicism.  If these method do not work then force is used.  Fascism emerges out of economic crisis, a revolutionary promise and reaction to capitalism.    It is often allowed to emerge because it is usually easy to get support from the upper class.

Welfare

Welfare.  Whether you collect it, or you pay for it (and for EVERY working American does one of the two), most citizens of our country are familiar with it.  Yet as every second of the day passes, more and more of my money and yours is being allotted to this growing epidemic called welfare.  The Personal Responsibility Act, signed by the President, was a monumental change in welfare as we know, or used to know it.  The welfare system is still in need or more strict and stringent policy reform, yet the Personal Responsibility Act was a prodigious step in the right direction.

WATERGATE: Was The Nixon White House Involved?

What was Watergate?  "Watergate" is a term used to describe a complex web of political scandals occurring between 1972 and 1974.  On January 20, 1969, Richard M. Nixon had become the thirty-seventh president of the United States.  As Nixon entered the White House, he was "full of bitterness and anger about past defeats, and about years of perceived slights from others in the political establishment."  Nixon, a Republican, once stated that, "Washington is a city run primarily by Democrats and liberals, dominated by like-minded newspapers and other media."  Nixon's obligation to control his political destiny and to forestall the damaging of his agenda by incumbents urged him toward the development of what was, in effect, a "secret government" (Gettlin and Colodny 6).  The word, "Watergate", refers to the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C.  In addition to the hotel, the Watergate complex houses many business offices.  It was here that the offices of the Democratic National Committee were burglarized on June 17, 1972.  Five individuals were arrested at the Watergate complex after the burglary.

US Term Limits

When the Constitution of the United States was adopted in 1789, it was without direction regarding term limits for legislators.  At the time, professional politicians were unheard of, and the idea of someone serving for more than one or two terms was unlikely.  So the Constitution did not formally address the issue of term limits, although it was understood that officeholders would limit themselves to one or two terms and then return to private life (1).  With the advent of the modern state, however, came the making of Congress as a career, and thus the voluntary removal of oneself from office, as envisioned by the founders, is no longer regularly undertaken in the United States

UNTITLED

Have you ever thought of what America would be like under a different style of government.  Thomas Jefferson said "A little rebellion now and then is a good thing."  If the governmental system that is in place is not meeting the needs of the country then that governmental system must be changed.  For those of you who do not understand the meaning of Anarchy, Webster has defined it as follows:

Anarchy:     <`an-ahr-kee>...noun.  1. A social structure without law and order,                                   government, or authority.  2. Utter  confusion. 

                         3. A rebellion against what is accepted as right or                                 correct.

United Nations

The United Nations is an organization of sovereign nations  not a world government. It provides the machinery to help find solutions to disputes or problems, and to deal with virtually any matter of concern to humanity.<P>

It does not legislate like a national parliament. But in the meeting rooms and corridors of the UN, representatives of almost all countries of the world large and small, rich and poor, with varying political views and social systems have a voice and vote in shaping the policies of the international community. The year 1995 marks the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Organization.<P>

The UN has six main organs, listed below. All are based at UN Headquarters in New York, except the International Court of Justice, which is located at The Hague, Netherlands.<P>
